Brilliant. Yeah, I discovered that it doesn't go around my pet which I originally assumed it would. Ahh well... still nice and frosty looking. I might get one to stick in my other account's neohome after all!

Actually as a Druid I have to disagree. The tradition was used for many years before Christianity came to our shores. Although saying that, as I said earlier, I really don't mind calling it a Christmas tree, in fact I always have. All that matters to me is togetherness and love this time of year and decorating a tree together with my family whilst singing and eating good food is a symbol of that.


Ahh, okay, thanks for writing that! That's very interesting. :)

I do love that the ice garland is wearable and can go in a neohome, maybe that will be a new trend?


and on a side note, anyone remember the editorial (maybe #314)where they said they were going to work on the insane inflation through the advent calendar?

And has anyone shopwized the wearable’s from this year’s advent calendar? They’re not going for the king’s ransom but I’m not sure how to judge how affordable it is...

I am liking the crafty multiple uses of that garland.

I thought they were joking at first but I just read it again and it does look like they meant it. Maybe they're thinking of giving each of us a random codestone for Christmas? I doubt they'll give a set of them anyway, that would likely make the prices drop too much. But I wouldn't say no to it! =D

That would be GLORIOUS!
Seriously though, they need to do something about codestone inflation. It's ridiculous.

My daydream for advent would be for them to give out *random* paintbrushes to everyone (obviously, more of the basic colored ones and less of the rarer ones). Of course, I know that's even less likely to happen than them giving out codestones.

My pet can't wear the garland.

As far as the one glaring - wouldn't you be if you'd just fallen into icy water? ;)



:lol: :lol:

There was one glaring or frowning or grimacing at the beginning when they were all singing or whatever they were doing. I'm glad you noticed the one on the iceberg, that's what I thought, too.

You find 732 Neopoints!!!
You find a Snow Yooyu Plushie!!!
You also find a Snow SPLAT!!!

Hehe. A wearable snow splat... Funny! I like it! Haven't tried it on yet though, so we shall see. :evil:

TNT have been very imaginative this year. :) I love the Snow SPLAT.

It is a shame my mutant draik still cannot wear 'clothes' - the splat is classed under 'earrings', so my draik still goes bare this winter.

It covers up most of my quiggle's face, so I won't use it very long.

But then the boards would be full of "OMG TNT IT'S NOT FAIR, I WANT A BABY PB!"" :lol:
Not that I'll see... I've decided to stop bothering to post there the last time I got an unexpected warning I couldn't fathom. x___x

I'm very unimpressed by the flash this year. In this one for example the loader is not working properly as the animation is running whilst it's supposedly "loading". Which means I only see the tail end of the movie as it's not looped. Shame really because I quite like Yooyus... =(

*hugs the snowy fellow and pastes a splat on SkellyPod*

The SPLAT looks funny on my Starry lupe.

Whee, more snow stuff. *hoards all*
The snow splat looks quite realistic, at least on my Eyrie, as the snow seems to be heaped and stuck on the top of her beak.

Aah, winter.
